Analysis of work disability in the workers of a central hospital—the impact of the Musculoskeletal Injury

In relation to work accidents in hospitals, the hospital environment is complex and presents a great number of risks for its workers, both in direct patient healthcare and to all the workers of other services that support the healthcare (Graça et al., 2013). According to the Information Bulletin for Work and Service Accidents (2011-2013), nurses and healthcare assistants are the ones that have had more work related accidents (DRH, 2013).
